    Please note that AbiWord's support for DocBook is much improved in the
    development version. We are keen to have good support for DocBook, so
    please (if you can) build the latest AbiWord from CVS HEAD and test the
    DocBook import/export plug-in.

    Regards, Frank

    ps. I don't know what documentation exists on DocBook usage in AbiWord -
        perhaps we could make that a POW?
